Platter of treats in window of a sweet little Belgian bake shop that specializes in cupcakes. If you are ever in the town of Ghent, be sure to check out Julie's House where everything is baked with love and served with joy. Yum!!

Peanut Butter and Cheese Dog Biscuits, edible for me too, but I don't put butter in Dog biscuits so they can be a little plain for us mere humans, although not to Daisy.. the smell of the peanut butter and cheese coming from the warm biscuits on my worktop is driving her mad....
2 cups whole wheat or plain flour.
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder.
1/3 cup smooth natural or organic peanut butter.
1/2 cup of grated cheese.
water or milk
Optional: 1 egg (great for a shiny coat)
1. Heat oven to 160c or 320f for a fan oven
2. Mix together the flour, baking powder and grated cheese in a big bowl.
3. In a separate bowl, mix together the peanut butter and hot water until smooth. Slowly add the dry mixture and mix well. Then add the milk or water to make a dough, if the dough is too dry or wet add more flour or water/milk accordingly.
4. Place onto your worktop and roll to thickness required for your cutter.
5. Cut with a cookie cutter and place baking/cookie paper on a baking tray.
6. Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly brown. Let cool, and let the begging begin....

I made these yesterday on a whim. I came across some baking clipart and thought they would be fun. The bowl, flour, and rolling pin were hand cut. I have to thank Cookiecrazie again for the hints on hand cutting....I feel like I can make anything instead of being limited to cutters!
a little taste of last sundays lunch...
Still busy :-(
I will catch up-as soon as I get the chance. Thanks for looking... :-)
Toby_Cat: FRESH BAKED CUTE — I made it myself just minutes ago and it’s still warm!

Toby_Cat has made it through two rounds of the Tweeterwall competition and is now hanging in with a chance to finish in the top twenty in “Ultimate World Animal” and be recognized in the previously unheard of Tweeterwall hall of fame.
If you wish to support Toby, you can vote here as often as once every twenty minutes should you find yourself hanging around your web browser any time in the next twelve days.
Toby promises to drop out of all future similar clicking contests, so, uh, this is your last chance to click for Toby.
Even though Tweeterwall is driving lots of traffic it’s not plastered with google or banner ads. There are icons of celebrity and character tweeters but it all seems pretty harmless.
Thought I would try something a little different! Today I had a go at food photography, not sure if it worked but at least the end result tasted nice! The recipe I followed (almost to the letter, I used a KitchenAid!) was by Paul Hollywood and it’s available on the Waitrose web site:

Little chef (bad translation intended*) at work...
Schöne Adventszeit!
Not sure how to translate that... Season's Greetings? Happy eating? :-)
*The German "Chef" is the boss, not (or rarely) someone cooking.
In this household, it is clear that THIS little chef is the boss....
Learned a trick of baking an egg in a muffin pan. It's pretty much changed breakfast forever.
Recipe: Crack 1 egg per muffin cup in a tin (if not non-stick, butter the tin first). Mix egg or not depending on your preference. Add sprinkles of whatever you feel like (spinach, cheese, herbs, etc). Bake at 350F for 10-15min depending on how runny you like your yolk.
Some of the market stalls have taken to baking their produce on site. This allows their customer to buy fresh from the oven
Baking treats has helped me maintain my sanity during Ontario's stay-at-home order, but it's a mixed bag. While we all enjoy cookies and cinnamon rolls, all the snacking (combined with a lack of exercise) is going to ruin us.
Online today I saw instructions for baking sourdough bread and it drew my interest. It's a bit of a long-term project in that just making the "starter" takes a week or more. It is also a process that has its uncertainties; it's not uncommon for a "starter" to not start. I will find out in a week.
Here is my starter (1/2 cup of flour and 1/4 cup of water). I put it in an empty primavera sauce jar which I rescued from the recycling bin (I did clean it up). This is a bird's eye (or baker's eye) view of the starter in the jar.
If this works, it will be good to have some sourdough starter to keep in the fridge in case the pandemic-induced shortage of baker's yeast persists.
Wish me luck!

This was a Christmas gift from my sister. I am air frying 4 Duck Breasts. Duck is my favourite meat.
Covid Boredom™ has some funny results. I took up baking. This is a loaf of "Back-of-the-bag Oatmeal Bread" that I made at home today.
If interested in making this delicious bread, King Arthur Flour has the recipe online.

Oh, and this idiot shot at 2000 ISO for no good reason. Thank you, Topaz Denoise AI!
24 oz. of singles. I don't know about you, but that's enough for a sweater for me! :D

I was following the pack
All swallowed in their coats
With scarves of red tied 'round their throats
To keep their little heads
From fallin' in the snow
And I turned 'round and there you go
And, Michael, you would fall
And turn the white snow red as strawberries
In the summertime...

Kuretake pens in Watercolor Moleskine A4. I wanted to leave a lot of white paper for contrast, freshness, for color to show more. Red is pretty reserved. I used Kuretake Zig lines: Clean Color, Brushables and Twin. And for lettering I used Zig Letter Pen, Cocoiro, I set it up today, it has cute design, you have to combine it yourself.
I baked a ton of cookies early this morning to bring to my church for a summer kids program. Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookies. Yum!
Evelyn's a little late with her cookie baking this year. She manages to get them done by New Year's Eve with some help from the Poppy crew.
While no technological masterpiece, this old egg beater is an obsolete dinosaur by today's standards - these days cakes are mostly made using electric mixers or food processors. But this old egg beater has served me well, having mixed cakes week in, week out when my family was growing up.
I could have taken a shot of the egg beater doing nothing, but thought I should whip up a 'throw it all in together and mix' type cake. The recipe called for the eggs to be beaten with some caster sugar till thick and creamy and then add the rest of the ingredients and combine. Now it's cooked, I suppose I'm going to have to eat it so my efforts aren't wasted.
